Odum Assists NOAA in Survey of Coastal Carolina Residents

Odum Assists NOAA in Survey of Coastal Carolina Residents.

Our survey research group is collecting data for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to learn residents’ attitudes, beliefs, and values related to marine and coastal landscapes, alternative energy production options, and offshore wind energy development. The survey pretest is currently underway with the full survey slated to occur in early 2018.

Randomly selected households in 8 counties along the North Carolina/South Carolina coast have been asked to participate in the mail survey. Odum will collect and compile the data for NOAA and the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management. Information on the project is available at https://coastalscience.noaa.gov/projects/detail?key=299.
